Comfort-based garment management

1. A system for comfort-based garment management, comprising:

a baseline engine to establish a sensor output threshold for a garment based on comfort data, wherein the sensor output threshold is based at least in part on baseline sensor output values that correspond with a comfortable garment fit as identified by a consumer of the garment and wherein the baseline sensor output values are associated with one or more dimensions of the consumer;

a comfort engine to receive sensor output data from a number of sensors integrated with the garment;

a comparison engine to compare the sensor output data with the sensor output threshold; and

a notification engine to send a notification to a party associated with the garment in response to the sensor output data crossing the sensor output threshold.

2. The system of claim 1 , including the baseline engine to establish the sensor output threshold for the garment based on comfort data, wherein the baseline sensor output values are collected while the consumer is wearing the garment.

3. The system of claim 1 , including the baseline engine to establish the sensor output threshold for the garment based on comfort data, wherein the sensor output threshold is based on a manufacturer's specification for the garment.

4. The system of claim 1 , including the notification engine to send the notification to the party associated with the garment in response to the sensor output data crossing the sensor output threshold, wherein the notification includes a notification that the garment is reaching the end of a pre-defined lifecycle.

5. A method for comfort-based garment management, comprising:

establishing a sensor output threshold for a garment based on comfort data, wherein the sensor output threshold is based at least in part on baseline sensor output values that correspond with a comfortable garment fit as identified by a consumer of the garment and wherein the baseline sensor output values are associated with one or more dimensions of the consumer;

receiving sensor output data from a number of sensors integrated with the garment;

comparing the sensor output data with the sensor output threshold; and

sending a notification to a party associated with the garment in response to analysis of the retail data and the sensor output data crossing the sensor output threshold.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the method includes analyzing the retail data for the garment, wherein the retail data includes an age of inventory for the garment at a retailer.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the method includes analyzing the retail data for the garment, wherein the retail data includes historical sensor output data from a number of garments associated with a number of consumers that purchased the number of garments at a common retailer.

8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

updating the historical sensor output data to include the received sensor output data from the number of sensors integrated with the garment if the garment was purchased at the common retailer, and

including the updated historical sensor output data in the notification.

9. The method of claim 5 , wherein the method includes sending the notification to the party associated with the garment in response to analysis of the retail data and the sensor output data crossing the sensor output threshold, wherein the party associated with the garment is a consumer of the garment.

10. The method of claim 5 , wherein the method includes sending the notification to the party associated with the garment in response to analysis of the retail data and the sensor output data crossing the sensor output threshold, wherein the party associated with the garment in a retailer of the garment and the notification includes the identification of a consumer of the garment.

11. The method of claim 5 , wherein the method includes receiving sensor output data from a number of sensors integrated with a garment, wherein the number of sensors integrated with the garment include at least one of a heat sensor, a pressure sensor, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a temperature sensor, a footfall sensor, a flex sensor, a thickness sensor, a chemical sensor, a tensile load sensor, a compressive load sensor, a light sensor, and a perspiration sensor.

12. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions executable by a processing resource to cause a computer to:

establish a sensor output threshold for a garment based on comfort data, wherein the sensor output threshold is based at least in part on baseline sensor output values that correspond with a comfortable garment fit as identified by a consumer of the garment and wherein the baseline sensor output values are associated with one or more dimensions of the consumer;

receive sensor output data from a number of sensors on a garment;

compare the sensor output data with the sensor output threshold;

and

transmit a number of notifications to a number of parties associated with the garment in response to the identification.

13. The medium of claim 12 , wherein to transmit the number of notifications to the number of parties associated with the garment in response to the identification includes:

to transmit a notification identifying the suspected defective garment to a retailer and including suggestions on addressing the suspected defective garment.

14. The medium of claim 12 , wherein to transmit the number of notifications to the number of parties associated with the garment in response to the identification includes:

to transmit a notification a manufacturer to replace the suspected defective garment with a non-defective garment at a retailer where the suspected defective garment is located.
